In the source code of Pro64, there is a directory named ipa. Isn't it the
ipa you have meant?

What is the difference of the light-weight inliner, standalone inliner and
IPA? Although I have read several times of the mannual of the IPA(5), I
am still confused on this.      

When I use "-INLINE:dfe=ON", it seems that it doesn't work: the dead
function is not eliminated while it would never be called after inlining.. 
I have a very
simple program in which the main call the only function. The function is
inlined, but the function is still there in the assembly program (.s).
